A new survey of college graduates indicates that the myth of the "starving artist" might be just that - a myth. The study shows that a majority of art majors end up being very satisfied with their careers, whether they work in the field they studied or not. American RadioWorks conducted its own informal survey of arts graduates, using voices from American Public Media's Public Insight Network, and we share some of the responses on this week's podcast.
